Good radio. Simple touchscreen w. Apple play
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy install in '10 Chevy Malibu with Axxess GMOS-LAN-03 LAN. Apple car play works great. Speedy tuning of radio. I don't have XM so I can't test that. I may get a rear view camera as this unit can work with one. Simple touchscreen interface.

Great Radio for the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this radio because it has CarPlay, so it connects to my iPhone. It is very good and responsive. Has a touch screen and works seamlessly with my iPhone. I can navigate using maps or Waze and listen to my music. Siri can read my texts or reply to them hands free through the car. I love it. Bestbuy installed it for free!!!

I LOVE my car again!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks like a factory installed radio. Looks Good , Sounds good. My only complaint is that Why did I not buy this sooner. Dealing with my old radio that was so ugly, outdated and the volume buttom was broken. This for sure was a HUGE upgrade. Such a small investment for such a big return. So, now I do not need to buy a new car. Updating the radio gave my car a HUGE boost. Now, I love my car again!,

Great.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a stereo with a knob for volume, that had Apple CarPlay, I know it might sound ridiculous but it quite hard to find one, I’m no expert at this, but there are many good reviews on YouTube to check out.

Great with Apple CarPlay
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great radio. I added a rear camera and use it as backup camera on my car. CarPlay for iPhones intergrates with is so one can see maps and texts among other things on it. It does NOT have the Android Auto so Android phone will have a basic interface.
